[U-Boot] [PATCH v1 2/2] powerpc: e6500: Lock/unlock L2 cache instead of L1 as init_ram

MPC85xx has been using locked L1 cache as init_ram. L1 cache is a write
through cache on E6500. L2 cache is enabled to to hold the data. This
patch locks/unlocks L2 cache to ensure no data cast out from L2 cache.
